Most retroviruses ( such as HIV-1 ) infect somatic cells, but in very rare cases, it is thought that exogenous retroviruses have infected germline cells ( cells that make eggs and sperm ) allowing integrated retroviral genetic sequences to be passed on to subsequent progeny, thereby becoming ' endogenous '.
